Chapter 1837 Metallic Ruler Core
'System, show me the information about Floating Island.'
As the rulers of the various regions of the Floating Island were having a discussion and even concluded it, Ajax was waiting to learn about the Floating Island.
As soon as he asked, the system started explaining all the information that his Contracted Spirit Beasts had gotten from the Old Men they killed.
'Ding,
The Floating Island is divided into Six Regions. They are:
1) The Fire Region is controlled by the Golden Winged Raven Emperor, Aveline.
2) The Water Region and its ruler is the Veiled Vampire Emperor, Maximus.
3) The Earth Region is ruled by the Abyssal Drake Lord, Oberon.
4) The Wind Region is managed by three Ghost Nagas, Jareth, Jocasta and Jovian.
5) The Metal Region was ruled by the Ten Old Siblings and currently, it has no ruler and one can become the Ruler of the Metal Region by using the Ruler Core.
6) The last and final region of the Floating Island was the center part of the Island which was called the Core Region.

According to the old men, no one, even the rulers of the other regions was allowed to enter the Core Region. If they enter it, their status as the Ruler of the Floating Island will be revoked before getting kicked out of the Floating Island.
'Oh. So, there is another region in the Floating Island.'
Looking at the six regions in front of him, Ajax was surprised to see an additional region in the list.
It was because, since there were Five Greater Elemental Worlds connected to the Floating Island, Ajax thought there would be only five regions.
Surprisingly, there was another region where no ruler or any other beings were allowed to enter.
'I wonder what kind of secrets the Core Region of the Floating Island is hiding that the Floating Island's spirit is not letting anyone enter that particular region.'
Ajax already learned about the Spirit of the Floating Island which could communicate with the Rulers of the different regions of the Floating Island and after learning about how it was not letting anyone enter the Core Region, Ajax became even more interested in that Core Region.
'However, let's not break the rules and get kicked out of the Floating Island.'
Since Ajax had many goals to fulfil in the Floating Island, he knew he could not afford to get kicked out of the Floating Island anytime soon.
It was in human nature that was filled with curiosity towards the things that seem mysterious and Ajax, as a human, naturally had such curiosity towards the Core Region of the Floating Island.
Nevertheless, when he thought about the goals he had to complete in the Floating Island, Ajax curbed his curiosity as he could not take any risk of getting kicked out of the Floating Island.
'Anyway, according to those old men, I can become the Ruler of the Metal Region by using the Ruler Core and I will get more benefits for being a Ruler.'
Soon, Ajax thought about the Ruler Core and flew in the direction where the Ruler Core was kept by the old brothers.
'Swoosh'
After flying for a few dozen of kilometers, Ajax saw a huge metallic building that was guarded by some metal-type creatures like Metal Armoured Rhinos, Pandas and many more.
Even though each one of those creatures has the strength of high-level Spirit Beasts, they didn't awaken any Divine Rules and were easily taken care of by Ajax's contracted spirit beasts.
In no time, the place turned peaceful as Ajax flew into the Metal Palace and in the main hall of the building, Ajax saw a shining orb hovering over the main hall.
'That might be the so-called Ruler Core that was mentioned by the old man.'
Without any explanation, Ajax could tell that the shining orb was none other than the Ruler Core and after checking out his surroundings, Ajax picked it.
He had already learned from the system that there were no dangers surrounding the Ruler and the host could pick it without any hesitation.
'Ding,
Item Name: Metallic Ruler Core (Ownerless).
Grade: No Grade.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUse: Upon dropping the blood, the cultivator or the re-cultivated spirit beast could become the Ruler of the Metal Region.
More information: Upon becoming the owner of the Metalic Ruler Core, an item that was created by the Spirit of the Floating Island, the new owner of the Ruler Core could communicate with the Spirit of the Floating Island and also communicate with the other rulers of the Floating Island.
'So, it only needs a single drop of my blood.'
At first, Ajax wanted to let one of his contracted spirit beasts become the ruler of the Metal Region; however, after thinking for a moment, Ajax decided to become the ruler of the Metal Region himself.
'Even though the old man said there were benefits to being the ruler of the regions in the Floating Island, I am very sure that there were equivalent risks associated with it. Let's not put others in such unknown risks as I can deal with it myself.'
While fighting the old men, Ajax only killed two old men whereas the remaining were all killed by his contracted spirit beasts and the elemental spirits.
However, Ajax believed that even without the help of his contracted spirit beasts and the elemental spirits, he could have killed those 10 old brothers if he had gone all out.
Since he didn't get any information about the rulers of the other regions of the Floating Island other than their name and race, Ajax didn't want his contracted spirit beast to suffer.
'Wait a second…since ten old brothers were the rulers of the Metal Region, can I also appoint multiple contracted spirit beasts as the rulers of the Metal Region?'
Suddenly, Ajax thought of something that made him change his thoughts of putting his contracted spirit beasts at risk.
'Ding,
According to the Second Brother, as long as the cultivators or the spirit beasts belong to the same species, they would be considered as one entity and could become the rulers of a particular region.
